There are various strategies that the physical unit may use to suppress emotional responses, thereby avoiding the feeling of guilt that inevitably accompanies disjunture; these include drug and alcohol stupification, hyperactivity to the point of distraction (never slowing down enough to be "alone" with one's emotions), compulsive attention to detail, the pursuit of superficial and aggrandizing relationships (i.e. finding others who will mollify negative emotions by making excuses and enabling disjunctive behaviors), self destructive behaviours (designed to shorten the lifespan of the physical unit), and so on. Of course, use of these strategies will only succeed in throwing the body further out of alignment. A descending "spiral" (see [[The Spiral]]) is thus engaged as the individual comes to require more stupification, more distraction, more focused compulsion, and increasingly dysfunctional and delusional relationships, in order to avoid the guilt.

Notes

When a no more than moderately damaged physical unit is behaving in a way that is out of alignment with the animating Monadic Consciousness, then the physical unit may experience guilt as a result. The guilt is caused by the action of the RMC as it "caresses" the body's emotional systems. The more out of alignment the behavior is, the more intense the guilt will be. The experience of guilt can range anywhere from mild discomfort and guilt to intense physical pain, and nausea.

It is important to note that a severally damaged physical unit may be unable to experience guilt, even when exhibiting holocaust like misalignment.

The physical unit has two options when it comes to alleviating the guilt that occurs under conditions of disjuncture, either straighten up and fly right (i.e. get into alignment with the animating consciousness), or suppress emotional responses by engaging in Awareness Reduction.
